What is the Canada Games Hall of Honour?

The Hall of Honour recognizes exceptional Canada Games alumni who have sparked greatness by distinguishing themselves during the Games and beyond, while contributing to the growth of the Canada Games Movement. Following a nation-wide call for nominations, the inductees for the Hall of Honour are officially inducted into the Hall during a ceremony prior to the start of each Canada Games. The Hall of Honour was established at the 2007 Canada Winter Games in Whitehorse, Yukon.

Nominees are currently eligible for induction in one of three categories:

Athletes:

The athlete category recognizes past Canada Games athletes who have achieved significant success in national and/or international competition. Nominees should also have demonstrated support for the Canada Games through promotional events, community engagement or other meaningful activities. Nominees must be inactive.

Builders:

The builder category recognizes past coaches, managers, officials, administrators, volunteers, mission staff, sponsors or members of the media who have made outstanding efforts and had an immeasurable impact for more than 10 years within the Canada Games Movement. Nominees may be active or inactive.

Distinguished Alumni:

The distinguished alumni category recognizes any individual who has participated in a previous Canada Games (as an athlete, coach, manager, or technical support personnel) and has since gone on to meaningful accomplishments in a field other than sport. Nominees exemplify the highest levels of ethical leadership in their profession and their community.
